Monica you are on the right track. His wife was known as Jeannie Mills. He died at 226 Galapark Road & i think Walter lived in the same street. There are many children Ann, Walter, Eva, Johanna, Bessie, Agnes, Alexander.etc... Most born in Galashiels. For clarity his surname was PHILP (not Philps, Philips or Phillips). His deat Cert says Foreman Baker.

Lòoked at replies. Surname is PHILP. Wife was indeed Jane Mills. Married in Dysart/Pathhead. Pathhead being a district on the border between Kirkcaldy & Dysart.
Died in Gallashiels. Yes those were his childrens names.
Still hunting.

I believe that my 2nd Great Grandfather, David Nicol Philp,,was born in Dysart but in his 30s moved in the 1870s to Gallashiels with his wifeJane where he raised a family. He is listed on his death certificate as Forman Baker. He died there on 18th April 1916. Despite manl attempts I can't find any record of where he was buried. I have found him on Cencus returns and have his death certificare which states that he is a widower and he was Foreman Baker.
Can anyone help me find where he is buried please as I have hit a dead end.

Wow Thanks. I've been hunting for this on and off for years. Didn't know of the Civil Records Website.
If anyone has any other info or a photo it would be very welcome.

Kerry / MICHAEL LANGFORD of KEEL, Castlemaine
« on: Saturday 12 February 22 14:58 GMT (UK) »
My husband's Grandfather was MICHAEL F LANGFORD 1866 - 1938 who owned the farmstead of Cloonaragh in Keel, Castlemaine. District known as Kilgarrylander. I have found him in the Parish Register with his death listed as 'MICHAELUM LANGFORD 19 May 1938 Tralee, Ireland'. We have also found his grave at Keel.
However we have had no success at all in finding a DEATH CERTIFICATE for him to find what he died of and any other information it may hold.
I've also searched for Wills and Probate as that sometimes holds extra family information. Can anyone help us find either of those ?
We would also really love to see a photo of him if one exists.
We hope someone here can help.

Hi. Ferleanie.
I just saw your post.
I see Agnes was your Grandmother's sister. Charles was brother of my husbands Grandfather. We have several photos of him young with the Barker family. Do you have a photo of him with his family or when he was older. The Barkers owned a large Hardware shop on Potters Bar High Street which was started by his father who had begun as a Builder with his father and brother. Barkers Store was owned by his father, then Charles brother then his son. 4 generations down the shop was eventually sold in 1987. It was well known as over the years as a supplier of ironmongery to local builders and tradesmen but also sold homeware, plants etc to the public in its shop as well as hardware.
